Not So Needy Crafting Station — Compatibility Edition
Unofficial revision 1.2.0 targeting Valheim 0.221.12.
Based on JoelOliMclean's original NotSoNeedyCraftingStation 1.1.2. This is not an official release by the original author.
Changes
- Removes the crafting-station roof requirement without replacing the entire vanilla usability check.
- Keeps vanilla fire requirements and other usability checks.
- Avoids the previous dependency on the internal m_haveFire field.
- Corrects the optional "Disable Rain Damage" behavior by setting m_noRoofWear to true when enabled.
- Retains the original plugin ID and configuration keys.
These changes are documented in the supplied compatibility notes. Other vanilla checks may still prevent use; this is not a blanket bypass of every shelter or station requirement.
Requirements
- Valheim 0.221.12 is the intended target; compatibility with other releases is unverified.
- BepInExPack Valheim (declared as an automatic dependency).
Installation
Mod manager
Install this package with a Valheim-compatible Thunderstore mod manager. Disable or remove the original NotSoNeedyCraftingStation package first. Start the game through the mod manager.
Manual
- Close Valheim and install BepInExPack Valheim.
- Back up your existing configuration.
- Remove previous copies of NotSoNeedyCraftingStation from BepInEx/plugins.
- Copy the DLL included in this ZIP to BepInEx/plugins/NotSoNeedyCraftingStation/.
- Start Valheim.
Do not install the old and compatibility DLLs together: both use the same plugin ID. Your existing configuration remains applicable. No user configuration is bundled.
Validation and limitations
The DLL is included unchanged. Its SHA-256 matches the compatibility build recorded in the preceding work:
c6ef96f5403d7fef0802a10716645233eea3040f09e1e757751b2fc9b1281c7e
The preceding build notes report static assembly/IL validation. This packaging pass checked file identity and package structure only. No in-game test was performed. Multiplayer, dedicated-server behavior and later Valheim releases are unverified.
